    Day of purchase of Bently
    R R.

    I was looking for a puppy and came across the listing of puppies at the pet store Four Paws and a Tail. One puppy was really of interest so we went to the pet shop to see him. There were a number of breeds there so I ended up looking at a number of the puppies before deciding on Bently, a Morkie. I took into consideration the overall condition of the puppies, the personality of Bently, the cleanliness of the pens, and customer support in making my decision. I was given advise regarding care verbally and in written form . Because especially small puppies can have hypoglycemic episodes if not provided adequate nutrition they stressed the importance thereof. Extra puppy food was provided at no additional cost and I was given paperwork that included information regarding DOB, breeder info, etc. Bently had been vet checked and the various vaccinations he had received as well as treatment for Kennel cough were noted. It also stated a grade I patella slip which was confirmed by my vet. Bently, was obviously a healthy, happy, busy puppy when I got him and has continued to flourish. In fact, he is playing constantly with the other dog in the house and I'll add he's smart ie. quickly learned about using the paper to potty I wouldn't hesitate to purchase another pup from this store and I appreciate the information and support provided by staff.

    I'll keep it short so people who want a quick summary of my experience. My girlfriend and I went there to look at puppies. There was a new breed of American Eskimo puppies. They looked very cute and playful. We sat down and played with all three. They had white coats but were covered in pee all around so came off to look yellow! The majority of them smelt horrible with poop, they also had it on their feet and behind. It was extremely sad and when I went to take a picture before leaving they yelled "stop" at me and then kicked us out and said we couldn't be up from them. Not to mention while we were playing with the puppies the worker watching us wouldn't stop asking if we were going to buy one which felt like a joke and was appalling due to the state of the puppies, unfortunately. Such a shame that dogs have to be put through this and be used for what they are to make a profit from the ridiculous prices they charge. After: After having piss poor results from the place my girlfriend and I bought a well bred and treated Pomsky puppy from Pennsylvania. They drove it to Minnesota for us and has been the best dog ever being almost 1 year old now! She has not been sick once yet and is an amazing and happy dog who we couldn't be happiier with knowing we didn't support the cruel practices witnessed from this disguised puppy mill. I am simply showing a photo of my dog now as proof.

    So here is a quick update just because it have been a few months since I got Kilow. He is healthy and happy. I took him to the vet and thankfully yet kinda a like scary the vet said the breeder amped him up on LOADS of infection prevention shots and illness prevention shots which (luckily for me then I didn't have to pay for the first round or two of those shots) (just sorry my puppy was poked so much but it just means the breeder wanted him to STAY HEALTHY when he was among all the other puppies coming from various breeders and didn't want his puppies to get sick or die) I went to Banfield to do his shots and checkups and cool fact in the monthly puppy payment plan they do a wisdom panel (genealogy) for puppies and so I had Kilow tested and TURNS OUT he had mini poodle in him too!! Which explains the CURLYYYYY HAAIIIRRR!!!! Ahhhhhh he had his first hair cut and he is a curl ball (insert photo) but I am still happy with purchasing my puppy the ONLY thing I will say I hated was the loan option they offered with Duvera (I forget what it's called at the store) but the loan option was terrible if your plan was to just make the minimum payments until it's paid off. The interest rate is.... wait for this.... it is... 151%!!!!!!!!! Which means your monthly $75 payment is literally paying like $10 off the principle and the rest is paying interest!!! Terrible!!! You're better off opening a new credit card and paying that off than using their loan options. Hopefully they fix that in the future because I think it was a fun and easy store as well as an easy process to get Kilow. In the future (If they are still open because we all know how that's going in MN to keep actual pet stores open) I do plan on using them again or referring friends/family their way.

    This is Kipcha now. Healthy and happy. She was severely underweight and very sick.

    I love this place!…read more You know how your kid bugs you for a fish tank and promises to take care of it only to lose interest as soon as the first pair of guppies dies? Well, that was me over 50 years ago except I never lost interest. I've been keeping fish and visiting fish stores around the country for my entire life. The people from World Of Fish who started RiverShore Aquariums have done a great job. Located not far from the original World of Fish, RiverShore has clean tanks, friendly and knowledgeable staff and they are super keyed in on planted tank setups. These days my tanks are relatively simple just to keep things easy, rocks and driftwood mostly, but I've been wanting to do a planted tank for a while. I know the basics but had some questions on substrate, plant selection and lighting for what is basically going to be a freshwater nanotank. The staff person who helped me was super knowledgeable, answered my questions and gave me some good advice for getting started. They had a good selection of different kinds of gravel as well as an assortment of driftwood and rocks. I liked that they have a table where you can do a little aquascaping trial and error before you make a final selection. The fish were high quality and appeared healthy. Most were smaller species suitable for planted tanks. I even discovered a new species that I had never heard of - anchor catfish. Super cool and perfect for my little nanotank. I know enough about fish and have been to enough fish stores to know which ones are really good. Rivershore is at the top of the list if you live in the Twin Cities, and especially if you're interested in giving planted tanks a try. Even if its plants aren't your thing or you are new to the hobby, I'd checkout Rivershore for your first aquarium.

    This is such a fantastic fish store. You know that one friend whose house is always immaculately…read morepristine, such that -- no matter how recently or how well you've cleaned your own house -- you always feel a little self-conscious & guilty when you visit theirs? Rivershore Aquariums is that friend: All the tanks are SO clean, and so perfectly lit, and all the fish are ready for their closeups. It's like an aquatic Parade of Homes in there -- 0% chance of the "Oh gosh, that fish looks so sick, should I mercy-buy it & set up a hospital tank & try to save it? Or should I not give this place my money?" experience. You should definitely give this place your money. They also sold me the sweetest, most industrious little pleco I've ever had in my life. I bought her as a bristlenose pleco, but she's secretly some kind of Turbo Pleco -- as in, my tank gets direct sunlight (can't be avoided), and it had the algae to match, but a week after I brought my new plec'ling home, I found myself asking a visitor, "Hey, you didn't clean the inside of the 55gal while you were here, did you?" (Spoiler: No, I do not have tank-cleaning houseguests. I just have a magic pleco.)
